Uhm, to state the obvious: to not replicate the same definitions over 
and over again three times times, for 3 scheduler tracepoints that 
share the record format?

Removing just a single sched_process_template use bloats the source and 
adds in potential fragility:

 2 files changed, 26 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)

So my request is to please at least add a comment that points the 
reader to the shared record format between sched_process_exit and the 
other two tracepoints.

Thanks,
